The UK Business Association Vietnam's member companies' charity football tournament, launched in September 2013 as part of the UK Business Week in Vietnam, has attracted participation from over 30 businesses over the past three years, raising 400 million VND to support charitable projects across Vietnam.
To conclude a successful year marked by the official visit of British Prime Minister David Cameron to Vietnam on the occasion of the 5th anniversary of the signing of the bilateral Strategic Partnership in 2015, and to celebrate the 20th anniversary of BBGV's establishment as the first licensed international chamber of commerce in Vietnam, a charity football tournament for BBGV member companies will be held on Saturday, January 9, 2016. This year, 16 teams will participate, including member and partner companies such as: British University Vietnam, British International School, Vietnam Airlines, PwC Vietnam, Jardines, HongKong Land, Coats Phong Phu, Luala Milano, Savills, Grant Thornton, Hilton, Intercontinental Hanoi Westlake, B. Braun, US Alumni, and notably, a team from the British Embassy with the participation of Ambassador Giles Lever. Players participating in this year's tournament all have a chance to win in the lucky draw two round-trip business class tickets to any destination in Southeast Asia on flights operated by Vietnam Airlines.
The friendly football tournament for member companies of the British Business Group in Vietnam promises to be a vibrant and fun event. The event will help bring teams closer together, while simultaneously showcasing and celebrating core corporate values – “team building” – through fun activities, sports, meeting new partners and friends, welcoming new members and achievements, as well as raising necessary funds for registered charitable activities across Vietnam.
